[quote="boxbible"]I am considered the best boxer to ever come out of my nation... When I won the world title, I was listed as undefeated in 60 odd fights but my early record was kinda sketchy... Only later on did my people admit to the press that I'd lost a fight early in my career.

Who am I ???


How about Ruben Olivares.

The loss is on his record now, but I remember he was this mysterious, unbeaten KO sensation
when he was approaching world class.

You got it! :wink:
I think you also could've been Jersey Joe Walcott.

Oldest fighter to win the title (the record later broken) and won the title after the most number of tries.
it was just a stab in the dark i didnt really think about it like the second and 3rd one

In my first seven matches (3-2-2) I faced three future world champions, one of them an all-time great... I eventually got a shot at another all-time great for the world title when I was 37-13-4...

You are right, Jaclem.

By the way, how do you like the toilet that collins (alias TheOne) has turned boxrec into?
